1998 BMW K1200RS, Low Kilometers, lots of extras

1998 BMW K1200RS

This beautiful blue motorcycle is a first of its kind. It represents the big shift from the engine-as-frame design of the K100/K1100 bikes to the new space frame design allowing the engine to be suspended and damped. This nearly eliminated the transmission of engine vibration to the rider and makes for a glassy smooth more comfortable and less fatiguing ride.

This very bike was one of the first of its design to leave Germany for North America in 1997 (the ’98 model year). It was imported to the States after purchase from a dealer in Ontario Canada well before these motorcycles were released in the U.S.A. It still retains it’s speedo and odo in kilometers (don’t worry no problem with street legality in the States). We believe this was the first K1200RS to be owned in the United States.

This K1200RS comes with an anti-dive front suspension yoke allowing the rider to fully utilize the powerful front brake during a laid-over turn without shortening the wheel base or changing the turning radius. It is also equipped with second generation antilock brakes (ABS II) for no-skid stop-on-a-dime performance.

Very very low miles or KM as this bike show kilometers not Miles

Excellent nearly unused Z-rated tires (I’ve forgotten the model)

Extras:

Integrated quick-release lockable hard-cases

Aftermarket detachable tank bag with map window for touring

Kryptonite wheel lock

Custom-built aftermarket detachable back rest for passenger (upholstery matches the stock saddle)

With all add-ons hanging this bike is the slickest most nimble yet comfortable touring motorcycle you could ask for. Cleaned off it’s a sport bike fast enough to give your neck muscles a workout keeping your head stuck on. You can be a laser beam on the Devil’s Highway or smoke the twistys at the Tail of the Dragon with this bike. No problem the choice is yours.
